News by the Steamers, There are three steamships at present on their way from England to this country. The Wash- ington, of the American line, isin her sixteenth day, and is expected to arrive hourly. The Hibernia, of the Cunard line, is in her eleventh day, and the auxiliary steamship Sarah Sands, isin her fifth day. Each one of these vessels will bring late news from Europe, and the arri- val ofthe Washington, with eight days later in- telligence from England and France, is anxiously looked for. We shall issue an Extra Herald within a short time after she shal! have reached the city. The French Republic—W1iil i¢ Succeed ? ‘The great problem of the century is the suc- cess of the new republic proclaimed in France. Fora week the public mind has been filled with nothing else—first with joy, exultation and con- gratulation; and now with hesitancy, doubt and fear of its ultimate success. Mr. Polk, the President of the United States, has nobly pronounced in its favor in a well writ- ten message, embracing the despatches of Mr. Rush, both of which we have sent to Europe, to cheer the hearts of the patriots of the Old World. Motions of general congratulation have been in- troduced and debated upon, in both houses of Congress; but after the first burst of enthusiasm had passed away, a singular and equivocal oppo- sition has sprung up to those congratulations, and doubts and fears are entertained that the French people will be unable, from their education, as well as from their position in the centre of the monarchical system, to establish a republic in Europe. In New York an immense public meet- sng has been held in the Park; but one of its most singular features was the absence of all the old spouters and speakers of the two great political parties. Like the revolution in Paris, the great assemblage to express sympathy for France, held in the Park in New York, brought out a new set of men entirely. The French revolution is evidently going to play an important part in this country, especially in the relation of parties, and the position and prospects of Presidential aspirations. Every one gives credit to the bravery, the heroism, and the promptness, with which this revolution has been accomplished and conducted; but doubts are springing up in various quarters, as to the success of the republic itself. Some think that it has too much Fourierism about it ; others don’t like the stand taken by the Catholic hierarchy; some see a general European war, and others a cluster of republics around France ; but all agree that a most terrible and destructive financial re- volution over the whole commercial world, must be met and overcome in the best way possible. In the midst of this checkered and tangled state of public opinion, it is delightful to per- ceive that the President of the United States has had the courage to rise above the usual level of his conduct, and boldly to send the message to Congress which we have already given in our columns and sent across the Atlantic. Mr. Polk has done many mean and malignant things du- ring his brief career; but we give him full credit for the manliness and magnanimity with which he has declared himself in favor of the French republic—a declaration that may yet make him the President for another term, in spite of all tne weak points in his character. If Cave John- son, even, would rise up from his narrow hori- zon, and endeavor to negotiate a new and libe- ral postal arrangement with the French repub- lie, we would be willing to take back half of the censures which we have heaped, like coals of fire, on his venerable head. The French revolution, in its length and breadth, is destined to become one of the great- | est of controversies in the United States during, probably, the next half century. Its principles, purposes and developements have already startled | the Old World from the slumber of ages, and it i# caleulated to produce changes on the Ameri- ean continent—North and South—that almost stagger the mind with their importance. Con- gress and the American people are only yet on the edge of the great agitations of the nine- teenth century Tue Wit or Joun Jacon Astor.—We give im our columns, an authentic copy of one of the greatest curiosities of the age—the will of John Jacob Astor, disposing of property amounting to about twenty millions of dollars, among his va- | rious descendants of the first, second, third and ourth degrees. Thisis va.uable a document | to them as the famous treaty of the ‘Senate is to | he Mexicans—both being worth about twenty millions to the respective parties. We were the first to publish the trealy with Mexico and to uake knows its contents, an act of good nature tor which our correspondent at Washington has heen imprisoned by the Senate of the United aceountot which a star-chamber ation ve etal goung onin that body. Whe- ther the Sarrogate of New York will make alike inquiry, to find out by what channel we pro- cured Mr. Astor's will, we kaow not. He would, however, have just about as much right and reason to do #0, es ihe Senate tion to the treaty. Hoth these documents were procured by us in the same way~ that is, by ho- nesty, industry and enterprise, directed to useful purposes, and intended for the public The inve hes im rela- enefit of the will of John Jacob Astor is 2 curious docwment, both in ite lenguage, compusition gud | | millions of ‘English grammar, as weil as in ite bequests, During the greeter portion of the last years of his life, he was the associate and Mecenss of Washington Irving, Mr. Cogewell, Mr. Halleck, and several other literary, philosophieal and poctieal geatic- men connected with the literary letitude and longitude of New York. The results of their doctrines, their views, their ideas, their talk, appear in the will; and judging from that docu ment, we must say that joa"t think much of their teachings. If we had been an associate of John Jacob Astor—a thing, however, for which we had but little time to spare from our duty to the public—we should have given him some instruc- tions in political economy, at least, of a very dif- ferent character from what it appears he has im- bibed from those whom he lived among. The first idea we should have put iato his head, would have been that one-half of his immense pro perty—ten millions, at least—belonged to the people of the city of New York. During the \nat filty years of the life of John Jacob Astor, his pro- perty has been augmented and increased in value by the aggregate intelligence, industry, enter- prise and commerce of New York, fully to the amount of one half of its value. The tarms and lots of ground which he bought torty, twenty, ten and five years ago, have all increased in value entirely by the industry of the citizens of New York. Of course it isas plain as that two and two make four, that the half of his immense estate, in its actual value, has accrued to him by the industry of the community. Having established this principle, we would have counselled John Jacob Astor to leave at least the half of his property for the benefit of the city of New York, in beautifying the public buildings, in making stone wharves on both sides of the 1iver, in paving the streets on the Russ system, (as we are doing in our life time,) and in ornamenting the city in every possible man- ner, leaving ten millions to be given to his rela- tions—a sum quite enough for any reasonable persons, of any rank of life in this country. But instead of this, he has only left less than half a million for a publiclibrary. Whata poor, mean, and beggarly result from associating with euch distinguished literary men, philosophers, and poets! We cannot, therefore, pronounce the highest species of eulogy upon the character of the late John Jacob Astor. He has exhibited, at best, but the ingenious powers of a self-invented money-making machine; and the associates, advisers, and counsellors, of his latter years, seem to have looked no further than to the dif- ferent pins, cranks, and buttons of this machine, without turning it to any permanent benefit to that community from whose industry he ob- tained half the amount of his fortune, in the in- direct values added to his estates in the course of years. Thus much to-day; but we shall at our leisure ge into a philosophical investigation of the will and character of the late Mr. Astor, and of the benefits conferred upon society by him—upon him by society, &c , &c. Tue Late General Horrinc.—The remains of this ofEcer, who died of fever at Mier, while ia command of the lower Rio Grande, arrived yes- terday in the ship Quebec, Captain Brewster, from New Orleans. From Bsrmvupa.—By the brig New Orleans, ar rived last night trom Bermuda, we received pa- pers to the 28th of March. They contain no news. Arrival of the Steamships Hermann and Cam- bria at Halifax, the former with damage. The new steamship Hermann, Capt. Crabtree, which sailed hence on the 2lst ult. for South- ampton and Bremen, put into Halifax on the 28th, having met with very severe weather and some damage. The Halifax Herald of the 29th, gives the following particulars :— The United States steamer Hermann, Crabtree, arrived at this port Yesterday morning, from New York, in7 days, bound to Southampton aud Bremen. On 25th inst. lat. 40%, lon. 60, 48, lying to ina heavy gale from E.N. E. d rod iron strap of the larboard inboard tions split, knocked away head rails, jib blown away from the gaskit. Gale abated at 0, A.M, on 26th, bore up for Halifax—was off the harbor on Monday morning. The steamship Cambria, hence, arrived at Ha- lifax on the same day. The Herald says:— This noble steamship made her aj oe about 7 o’clock last evening. She came moving slowly amid a thiok fog, which completely apes ourharbor. The news she brings is not of a very exciting character. Marine Affairs. Launcu.—The steamer State of Maine, of about 1,500 tons burthen, will be launched from the yard of Bishop & Simonson, corner of avenue C and 12th street, East River, at 9 o’clock A.M. She was built for the Penobscot Steam Navigation Company, under the superintendence of that well known, able, acoomplished, and gentlemanly commander, Capt. 8. H. Howes, whose reputstion for Kindness and attention to passengers through many try- ing scenes, has endeared him to the travelling commu- nity on our eastern waters. No pains have been spared to render her sufficiently strong to withstand the force of the element she hasto contend against on the boisterous route for which she is intended, vis., between Bangor end Portland. Pacer Suir Devonsuine.—Of the splendid ship bear- ing this name, New York and the country at large may well be proud, for she is decidedly in every respect the ne plus ultra of what can be attained in the way of na- valarchitecture. She lies at the foot of Pine street, East River, and is well worthy of a visit by all who take an interest in this branch of American industry. She fur- nishes evidence that the United States is determined to maintain and keep the proud position which it has so long occupied in the science of ship building; for with ‘us it is a science; and that every improvement and new suggestion, which the mind of man conceives, that wil) tend to improve a vessel in the style of her model, her rig, or her internal arrangements, will be called into ser vice, and made to contribute to the extension of the fame which the world has awarded to the ship builders of this country. The Devonshire belongs to Griswold’s line of London packets, and will be under the command of Capt. Morgan, so well and so favorably known from his long oon- nection with the packet trade of New York She was built by Westervelt & Mackay, under Captain Morgan’s iste supervision. Her model is exceedingly well calculated for swift sailing, and her internal arrange- ments and furniture, are all that can be desired. She is ot twelve hundred tons American, dred English, burden, and posse: pI oda. tions for eighty first class passes; ) With apsrtments on deck for twelve second class. The visiter is amazed at the strength of vessel when he visits the betwren decks, and at the a roominess and ventilation of that part which is intended for steerage passengers. It is se- ven feet in the clear, and upwards of eight between the ceiling and the floor, and admirably lighted. Her staterooms are all that can be desired, and embrace ma- ny improvements that are not to be found in any other vessel. They are large, comfortable, and convenient, as wuch #0 as the sleeping apartments of our'best hotel They are so arranged, too, that a man of family can have his cbildren and his servant within call of him at any moment, an advantage of no small maguitude at sea, especially in the commencement of a voyage. When the visiter enters the snain cabin, be is struck immedi- ately with the magnificence and richness of the cabinet work, trimmings, and tapestry. Nothing seems omitted that could make the apartment all that is desirable and comfortable, Her pantries, and other departments un- der the superintendence of the steward and cook, are in the most convenient manner. Not an is unoccupied. and yet there is abundance for every thing. Hitherto it has been the case inch of # of room to a cortain extent, that while the acoommodation and comfort of the passengers and officers have been provi- ded for in an ample manner, the spartment for the sail- | ora, the forecastle, has received less attention than it ought Such is not the case on board the Devonshire. The forecastie of this vessel js roomy and airy, each comfortable berth, wherein he can repose , with a number of pegs on which he can bang bis clothes, and though last,not least, we saw there ‘8 book case in which is to be stored a library of moral and entertaining works, designed for the mental amuse- ment and improvement of the men. This is a feature which we should like to see on board of all vessels, and we that it will become general before long. jo |, the Devonshire is the beau ideal packet ship. With such a vesseland such a gentlemanly, well tried and long ex, commander as Captain Mor- gan, * vepeas to London is deprived of its terrors, and is to be rather then avoided. We believe she will sail on the twenty-fourth of this month, and that al- ready more than one half of her berths are engaged. The London Times of the 5th ult., speaking of the fall of the French funds, says that—** To state the sum of this Sopcersion, it may suffice to ob serve thats property which, in all hi ) in England snd France, cannot be worth less than twelve hundred unds sterling (equal to 796 mil- liona of dollars, at $4 83 per pound), sank in three dsys to & market value of a eleven bundred mill- Jone, belag @ fall lo value of 499,000,000." [eee Summary. Our telegraphic despatches from the seat of government announce the demise of the Hon. James A. Black, a representative from South Carolina. Both branches of Congress, in respect to the memory of the deceased, adjourned over. The case of the Herald correspondent was argued before Judge Cranch, yesterday, who will, probably, give his opinion in the matter to-day. In the Legislature of this State, we see that the Senate passed the bills for the incorporation of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, and the New York and Staten Island Ferry Company. la the Assemvly, the general appropriation bill was the subject of considerable discussion and modification. A bill was reported to authorize the Corporation of New York to borrow money to pave Broadway with the Russ pavement. The bill for the’incorporation of the New York Theat- rieal Fund was passed.!’ The Assembly have agreed to adjourn on the 12th.

Centaevitte Course—Trottine ano Pacino.—The sports on Mondsy, notwithstanding the raw, unplearant state of the weather, came off in @ manner not only to satisfy, but to surprise, all who witnessed them. ‘The contest for the first purse—trotters, mile heats, best three in five, contended for by g.g. Medoc and b.g Yousg Americus only, American Doe being drawn—was but » 80-0 affair, in the matter of time, which, however, may be accounted for by the heavy state of the track, con- sequent on the early season; but the pacing contest, taken in point of speed, with the before mentioned drawb.cks, will stand comparison with anything of the kind on record. The roads leading to the Centreville wero in good order; the attendance at the track was, speaking in mercantile phrase, about from fair to middling; the im provements about the course were much admired by all who were present; and nothing occurre 1 to mar the xcept the cold south east wind which swept over the course. Preliminaries being set- tled, the trotters came up to start for First Heat —As the nags crossed tt core, thi dd was given, Young Americus on the inside, having » slight advantage in the lesd. Round the turn Medoc bi up, and fell of bout three lengths, which Americus increared to the quarter pole to full twenty yards. He passed that point in 45 seconds, the half mile pole in 1:28, without losii sn inch; but from there to the three-quarter @ fell off badly ; while Medoo seemed to improve both in steadiness and speed M. took sidos with the other on the home stretch, and ee pee ingen This result ing, Young ericus having been the favorite at the start. cond Heat —This time Medoo took the lead, and held it throughout the brat, Young Americus having broken up several times, the impatience of his driver causing the majority of the socidents; for after the firet break he never gave his horse tims to recover fairly, before, by over-urging him, he caused like mis- haps, ‘and allowed Medoc to win the heat easily, in as Third Heat.—Medoo led off in this heat, and held bi advantage to the quarter, in 45 seconds, and to the hal in 1:27; but round the lower turp, Youog Americus closed on him, end they came on the howe stretoh side and aide, rom the three quarter pole to the judger’ 4 se two lengths in front; but on the back stretch he was hurried up too ae bgaeerorertieey brol ing the latter the lead, which he maintained throughout passing the half-mile fo 1:16, and ry instant, until he reache: in 2:22, nearly distancing Village Boy ‘and Har ry Beyd. This time, making just spongy, heavy state of the track. which was at least sev en or eight seconds slow, will bear comparison with ali previous performances. Second Heat—This heat, Roanoke took the lead round the turn, and was a couple of lengths in front of Villag+ Boy at the quarter pole, which he passed in 40 seconde, Harry Boyd being five or six in the rear, having broken up onthe turn. At the ‘wile pole, Roanok: and Village Boy were side and side—(time, 1:21)—and they hung together, without much deviation of position round the lower tura, and up the stretch to the draw- |e adaery Village Boy broke anes up the struggl: heat, Roanoke’s lesting qualities being too much for him. Harry yr boca bemg idle during the conten: tion between th two, came up, and passed Villag: Boy, after his accident, and was second at the stand. Roanoke won this heat by five or six lengths, in 2:35). Third Heat.—The horses came up finely, and starte well together. Round the turn, Village Boy was in ad vance, Roanoke second, and Harry Boyd a few lengths behind. Thus they continued to the quarter pole, ic 39, and to tha half mile in 1.165, when Roanoke closed uj with Villege Boy, and it wasa meok and neck race be tween them allthe way round the lower turn, and uj the home stretch to within forty yards of the judges’ stand, when Villsge Boy broke up, and Roanoke won thr purse and heat by about two lengths, in 2,33—Harry Boyd fifty yards in the rear. ‘be following is a recapitulation of the day’s sport :— Trotting.

Theatrical and Musical, Travian Orena House.—Thore was a highly respect able attendance at this theatre last evening, but it war not as full as might be expected on the first representa tion of the new and beautiful opera of ‘‘ Nabuco,”’ the music by Verdi. It is truly a grand spectacle, and war put upon the stage in the most magnificent and gorgeous manner, as regards scenic effect, dresses and decorations. When the curtain was raised, the scene representing the interior of the Temple of Solomon, was 90 beau- tiful and imposing, that the cheers of the audience fol- lowed for some time. The opening chorus was excel lent; they all seemed to be well instructed in their re- spective parts, ana sang in good harmony. The part of bigail, a slave, the supposed daughter of Nabuco was ably sustained by Signorina Truffi; the scena Prode guerrier! d’amore, was given with all the elegance and finish of sweet soprano voice, which, from its prope: management, gives evidence of the most refined musica) education. In the second act, the solo, * Saigo gid d | trono aurate,”” her execution was thrilling, and she “is- played all the sparkling beauties and exquisite harmony of the Italian aria. The closing chorus of the second aot, between Nabuco, Zechariah, and Abigail, was perfectly euphonius. In the third act, the duet of N: buco and Al Ne) was delightful: many embellishments, tones in one of her pect es, which reiterated cheers. She was encored, and a beautiful bouquet thrown to her from the first tier. Bene- ventano formed his part well; he was in fine voice, and was cheered throughout in the charac- ter of Nabuco. Rosi, as Zacheriah, was also weli received. The part of Iemacl, by Sig. Bailini, is of trifling character, but in the trios and duetts he acquit- ted himself well; his voice seems delicate, and he re- quires a little more energy. One thing we are opposed to in the singers of the modern sehool, and that is, when endeavoring to ornament or embellish, they overstrain the voice in attempting a height which they fail in ; and even if accomplished, it is so harsh ‘and grating t: the ear, or, in other words, appears more like screaming than singing—that it becomes inharmonious and disa- gteeable. It is always better to keep within the compasr of their own natural voice, unless the falsetto is sweet and a scientific blending from the natural to the faleett: can be reeorted to. Signorins Patti, as Phevena, the daughter of Nabuco, displayed the powers of an exoel lent contralto voiee. In fine, the opera throughout ably st , the chorus singers were well disciplined and the soenery was rich and did. The music is excellent, and we have no doubt this opera will prove profitable fer the management. Bowery Tueatar.—The strenuous endeavor of th: enterprising manager of this theatre, to revive in ite fall vigor, the legitimate drame, has every prospect o! being successful. The Jarge attendance of last night betokened this. In addition tothe announcement of Bul- ‘wer’s play of ‘The Lady of Lyons,” to be followed with that of‘: William Tell,” considerable interest had been excited by the fact that Mre.JAbbott and Mr. Dyott, from the Park theatre, would’appear. Mr. Dyott as Claude Melnotte, acted with inimitable grace was at times loudly cheered. The jette of Jordan who appeared as Glavis, was exquisite; and the united action of himself and Beauseant,'in schemes which to ind power, and the one was hoger to the other a matter of re wanted nothing for effect. Mrs. Abbott as Paulin stra ineensed, yet triumphent victim, fully sustained reputation. Keene, in the person of Mone. Deso! pelles, was amusingly animated and correct, while Hall as Col., afterwards Gen. Damas, gave a most satisfying portion of entertainment. Mrs. Stickney, as Madame Deschappelles, was in her element, and elicited much merriment. The Play, of “ William Tell” followed, in which Mr.‘W. Marshall;was the hero, and Tilton, Gesler The action was of a sufficiently high character to war- rant individual commendation, but we have only room to state, in addition, that the scenery and grouping war such asto give the most splendid effect to the entire Nay, mo part ef which is suffered to droop.

CuatHamM THEAtTRE.—This house was filled last even- ing with a most highly respectable audience; the dress- circle was crowded with ladies and family parties, the pit and upper boxes were all filled, and the theatre alto; gether presented quite a gala appearance. We cansay without the slightest exaggeration, that the Chatbamir one of the most genteel and pleasant theatres in the city. performances are well selected and well acted, as the stock company is composed of actors wio have each of them @ established reputation.

At sunrise in the morning the flags on the City Hall and all the public buildings were hoisted at balf-mast, in to dead. e busy sceres of contusion which, but the day before, filled the city in every part. dey of mourning ccme round. the members of the Common Council with their staves of office, headed by the venerable Ja- cob Heys, high constable, whose frame tottered with the infirmity of age, moved from the City Hall, up Chatham street to No 92 Roosevelt street, the late residence of Mr. Kerr. The exempt firemen having assembled to pay the lust tribute of respect to one of the ‘noble of the corps, were in readiness to re- ceive the body. At a quarter to three o’clook the exempt firemen moved im advance, which followed the corpse. The relatives and friends followed immediately after, the members of the Police Department and seve- ral fire companies bringing up the rear. ‘They moved tisongs Madison street, tothe church of the Rey Dr. Ferris, in Market street, where the funeral ceremonies were performed Approaching the church, the lines in front separated, and the corpse was teken iv. front of the desk, followed by the relations of the de- ceased, who took the pews on each side of the pulpit, and the members of the Common Council occupying the pews in the centre, on the right hand of the main aisle. ‘All was then etill as death, save the plaintive tones of the or can. The Rev. Hevny Case then addressed the Throne of Grace ia a simple, but kes atijul, touching and appropri- ate prayer. ‘The Rev. Dr. Fernis then rose and addressed the au- dience. He said :— : Farenps anv Barturen :—Why this gathering in the house of God? Why this array ef men around this sanct ? Why this air of sadness and mourning’? This is not the Sabbath, or the time of usual convoca- tion for holy duty. No sweet sounding bell has called us to weekly duties. Why thisscene, with all ite sc- lemn, impressive ciroumstances’? Ab! my friends, it is indeed unusual. But fer what reason have we thus ga- thered? Calamity has befallen us—beavy calamity; and where shall creatures, crushed like the meth, er go than to the altar of their God; who having smitten, can also bind up—who, if he afflict, does it net wantonly, but as the great moral Cao ager because he sees a ne- oersity for every bitter potion administered and every chastisement inflicted; and by all would teach the: most important leseons. | trust we are all in a state to i PERE ie BEEEB ak 3 & to the scene of o the city’s interests, and at the post of dut: were bruised, mangled and crushed. ruptured—what hearts made desolate! We must ask of thls circle of mourners—of that bereft wife, left n struggle alone amidst the world’s trials, her guid protector now powerless in death; and those fatherlesr children. But we must not ti this soene—other cireles are dissol other hearts hi roken, and id mangled bodi writhe in pain. What scenes may occur in the oalm- ness and solemn quist of the Sabbath morn! It has been my, lot to mingle in many effecting scenes in the house of mourning-to go from bed-side to bed- side, when the cholera plague stalked abroad in the country, and mark the consternation which had seized the most philosophic minds —but never have I seen such deep sorrow—so unmitigated sympathy, as the calamity of the last Sabbath morning’s fire caused. Every mind was intent on knowing the extent of the evil suffored— every countenance was sad. The language Ld Soropin and Condolence feli from many lips; and especially amo: the large circle with whom our friend Kear was calle: offic! to mingle, was there, and is there a pervading feeling of sorrow. 1 know not that firemen’s hearts have been so bowed down under any previous loss (ales ! how many victims have their ranks from time te time farnished to the fell destroyer) as by this.—Well known for his probity and persons! worth—working his way successfully upward in his avocation—accommodating, complaisant, ready to give hisaid at all times, few men had more solid and promi prospects before him than Mr. Kerr ; and throughout this part of the city his loss is deeply regretted. We all realise to-day the affecting character of this event. | trust this is the preparation for | proper improvement of it. Too often, alas, the death of friends and neighbors is coldly viewed—too often our fu! Occasions ere matters of course. But can it beso today? Let us seek to avoid it, by giving our minds to suon refisctions as the circumstances na- turally call up. My friends, how impressively does this set home the uncertainty of life! At best, our existence here is but a ; and let our years be protracted to four scores, our course isa briefone Bat how fow arrive at that extreme limit? how many are cut down ere they have reached their prime? and how many by some sudden call of Providence? In the ordinary course of men, we look for a preceding illness and de- cline ; but in certain pursuits of life the hazards of a sudden death are multiplied The soldier in the time of war ; the sailor yoysging over the tempcatuous ocean, and the fireman, in his nightly exposure, all are called mentioned live in the midst of danger—live on the brink of the grave. We are called to cherish the tenderest sym- pathy for this circle of mourners. It is true, our symp: thy cannot restore the dead—cannot bring back to th home circle the manly form ofthe husband, or the father’s smile, Hushed for ever is that voice—silent that fami- liar step, as beantifully CO eee by Preait of the Board of Aldermen, of the dead: strokes of the midnight bell will no more wake their sleeping or disturb their slumbers; the lurid glare of the consuming fire will never ia animate their bosoms, and urge them onward to the scenes of danger.” Speaking of the children, he ssid—‘! confess my heart has been very much drawn towards the elder of this lit- tle eolstnmes/ old enough to realize his loss, and mtly yet appare: ita .

I trust that this is the budding of precious hops.” My friends, let me ask further—is not this a fitiing time and crisis for this community to wake up toe pro- per view of the interests of firemen! re unanimous in our opinion of the value of this means of public se- curity; we are ready to say, would you see, promptness in arduous duty, go to our departments. ‘ould you see intrepidity in danger, go to our fire department. Would you see a truly self-eacrificing spirit, go to our fire department. We give them our admiration, and what else do we givo?—what else to eto men to hezard overything— limbs, health, family, hopes, and life, im their volunteer duty? If the fireman is mutilated, do we take care of him’. . If he loses bis eyes or his arms, dowe give him the means ofa keeper’. [fhe can no longer toil for his wife and child, do we nourish them’? If he lose his life, do we provide for those who depend- ed on bis daily efforts? Ah, here is a sad tale to be told! Wehave pensions for the soldier's widow and his fathex- less children, bat none forthe fireman. Hislife is one of slavery for the community—daey and night he toilse— in freezing winter a1 try summer, in storm and in sunshi while th fr t community feel secure, and teke theircomfort,end reason, “the fremanis at his post.”” And what bas he for this? Oh, he is free from militia how much is that to be sat down?—765 cents eg year! Seventy-five cents per ea !—fall enough, so far as militis duty is eoncerned, but pitiful in the other aspect. And there is relief from jury duty. To how much does this amount? [ e looked carefully at this subject, and am constrained to say, that the labor of ove winter in » fire company exceeds by far, taking all things into account, the jury duty of hole life, this city, where that duty is heaviest. the heaviest tax payer in the community: besides the pe- cuniary tax, which he Roa 2 common with all others, his is a tax in flesh and blood, as I have before called it in this pulpit. ‘There is a werk to be done for him: the allowance of the Fireman’s Fund is a sweet comfort in many a onse, but inadequate; the occasional appropri- ations of the Common Council, very gratifying, and that of last evening noble; but we need a system—a settled city system—on this subject. Asa city, we oweit to the firemon to have a rej provision made, which shal! be an integral part of city obligations. Taxed as we are, we should still be taxed for a pensionary arrange- ment which shall bs come solace, some adequate reliance for those whose friends are thrown upon them maimed and helpless, or who are deprived of them by casualties in the disobarge of duty. If 1 could lift up my voles to be heard by every fireman in never to rest from petition a1 thers make suitable pensionary vision for the hun- dreds whose life is one of extra hazard for the city se- eurity. I would this might be the occasion for beginning such effort. ‘The ceremonies in the church being concluded, the members of the Fire Department arrived, and reesived the remains.
